<title>Description</title>
<para><function>sd_get_seats()</function> may be used
to determine all currently available local
seats. Returns a <constant>NULL</constant> terminated array of seat
identifiers. The returned array and all strings it
references need to be freed with the libc
<citerefentry><refentrytitle>free</refentrytitle><manvolnum>3</manvolnum></citerefentry>
call after use. Note that instead of an empty array
<constant>NULL</constant> may be returned and should be considered
equivalent to an empty array.</para>
<para>Similarly, <function>sd_get_sessions()</function> may
be used to determine all current login sessions.</para>
<para>Similarly, <function>sd_get_uids()</function> may
be used to determine all Unix users who currently have login sessions.</para>
<para>Similarly,
<function>sd_get_machine_names()</function> may be
used to determine all current virtual machines and
containers on the system.</para>
<para>Note that the returned lists are not sorted and in an undefined order.</para>

<title>Return Value</title>
<para>On success, <function>sd_get_seats()</function>,
<function>sd_get_sessions()</function>,
<function>sd_get_uids()</function> and
<function>sd_get_machine_names()</function> return the
number of entries in the arrays. On failure, these
calls return a negative errno-style error code.</para>

<title>Notes</title>
<para>The <function>sd_get_seats()</function>,
<function>sd_get_sessions()</function>,
<function>sd_get_uids()</function> and
<function>sd_get_machine_names()</function> interfaces
are available as a shared library, which can be compiled
and linked to with the
